Independent reasoning. Transparent funding.

1. How This Platform is Funded

IS IT TOO LATE? is an independent decision-exploration platform. To support ongoing research, hosting infrastructure, and free public access to educational topic guides, we display commercial advertisements supplied through Google AdSense.

2. Strict Editorial Independence

Advertisers, commercial sponsors, and network partners have zero access to or influence over our research findings, timeline estimates, decision rubrics, or editorial conclusions. We never accept payment to rate a goal more favorably or alter reality checks.

3. Clear Labeling Standards

All commercial advertisements on this platform are distinctly labeled with "Advertisement" or "Sponsored links". Ad units are visually isolated with clear borders and spacing from core editorial content and action buttons.

4. No Ads on Sensitive or Private Screens

In accordance with our Truth and Safety Charter, advertising is strictly prohibited on:

• Personal assessment intake forms (/questionnaire, /find-my-situation)
• Generated possibility reports (/report/*)
• Crisis, mental health, and safety escalation screens
• Minor-gated or high-risk R2/R3/R4 advisory routes

5. Affiliate Relationships

If we provide links to external books, educational courses, or resources that carry affiliate compensation, each link will be designated with rel="sponsored nofollow" and accompanied by an adjacent clear disclosure. We do not endorse any product that fails our evidence benchmarks.
